Nutritional Research in Public Health

Abstract

Nutritional research in public health actually reaches into all phases of public health. All we have done here is to refer briefly to some of the research activities of this department. Man must be fed in addition to being sheltered from the elements. The problem of feeding is one not only of agriculture but also of health, because the basic reason for food is to nourish the body. Wherever there are living cells there are problems of nutrition. Nutrition is really the basic problem of all health.
